This quest Versunkenes Mana awards 250 reputation (not sure if weekly, one time or daily.. Yet)

In order to reach Conjurer Margoss, you need to fish up Emblem von Margoss from Swirling Whorls fishing nodes in the Black Market of the sewers of Dalaran. They are consumed on use, so you will need to fish up another to return.

Demon Hunters can glide over... I did.

Does anyone know if these can be fished up before level 110? If yes, are there any other pre-requisites to be able to fish them up?

Effectively, these seem to be the "Lunker" of Legion, and there was a long process that you could not start until level 100 that led to being able to catch Lunkers in WoD.

Kommentar von Bluedraenei

The Versunkenes Mana can actually be fished up with any fishing skill. It does not require 700+ fishing. We have yet to find out if the chances increase with your skill level.

This information is current as of September 8/16 on Live servers.

TIP #1: There are groups in the group-finder that fish together on Margoss' Retreat; this greatly increases the number of Mal von Aquaos that are fished up, and with enough people you can chain them back-to-back, increasing your rate of Versunkenes Mana acquisition dramatically!

TIP #2: Take advantage of reputation buffs, like Jippie!/Dunkelmond-Zylinder while the Darkmoon Faire is active, or similar buffs listed in the guide below during holidays to speed this grind up!

As a "Friend" NPC, there is an associated faction and reputation associated with Margoss - Beschwörer Margoss (similar to Nat Pagle or the Tillers NPCs).

Getting to Margoss' Retreat

The island on which Beschwörer Margoss can be found is just North of Dalaran. Note that this small island isn't shown on the map of Dalaran - it is outside of the bounds of the in-game map (therefore coordinates are not helpful!)

There are a number of ways to get to the island:

FlyingOnce flying is unlocked in Legion, this will be an easy way to get to the island.

Emblem von MargossEmblem von Margoss is a consumable item that teleports you to Margoss' Retreat. It can be fished up in the Dalaran Underbelly from the Swirling Whorl pools around the Black Market Auction house - in the Underbelly.These items are consumed when used - so to use this method again you have to fish up another.

Manually Reaching the IslandIt is possible to get to the island using unconventional means. First, go through the gap in the Dalaran wall at , between the Violet Citadel and the Magus Commerce Exchange (you can see it if you follow the grass to the right of the Violet Citadel stairs). You'll see the pet trainer on the ledge below, and in the distance you will see Margoss' Retreat, recognizable by the pool of water in the center. From this ledge you can reach the island through the following means:

Aquaos drops no loot, but killing him infuses the pool on the island with mana, increasing the catch rate of Versunkenes Mana to 100% while it is active for a short time! This state is indicated by blue mana motes rising from the surface of the water.

This "mana infusion" state lasts 2-3 minutes from testing.

Mal von Aquaos is Unique - as such, it is advisable to use it as soon as you catch one, to avoid not being able to loot any more you may catch. Of course, if the buff is still up on the pool from a previous kill, wait until it has expired before using another - prematurely using one DOES NOT extend the buff!

Overall this is a fairly low sample size; however, based on the information, it appears that Fishing skill has little to no effect on Versunkenes Mana catch rate. Further testing is needed to see if maxed fishing will yield different results.

Reputation with Beschwörer Margoss will allow you to purchase the various items he has for sale - including a pet and a mount!

There is a one-time quest (Versunkenes Mana) that you can complete by fishing up and turning in 1 Versunkenes Mana for 250 reputation. Thereafter, the only way to obtain further reputation is to turn in Versunkenes Mana for 50 reputation per mana.

There are 5 levels of reputation before Best Friend, which is the maximum reputation. Each of these levels has 8400 reputation.

To improve the rate of reputation gain, keep in mind the following buffs (note that some of the following buffs stack):

*Each level of reputation requires just over 152 Versunkenes Mana with a single 10% buff. Stacking buffs will further the effectiveness.**This level requires fewer mana turn-ins due to the one-time quest.

Kommentar von Elenda

Don't waste your time like I did and misread that they stack to 100. They're unique to 100, so even if the pond is empowered and sparkly after killing Aquaos the Unleashed, you won't fish up any Drowned Mana until you turn some in to Conjurer Margoss.

Kommentar von phoenix074

This is probably a bug, but when doing the quest, beware he will take all of the Versunkenes Mana in your inventory, so be sure and turn in the first one you fish up before catching any more!

Kommentar von Steffwiz

You don't have to tire your fingers turning in Versunkenes Mana. There's an easier way.

Put the following script in a macro and click it. You will now automatically select gossip option 5 whenever you interact with Beschwörer Margoss, which will turn in 10 Versunkenes Mana. When you are finished, just /reload or relog to clear the script so you can talk to him normally again.

Kommentar von snotflower

A mage can jump from the pet battle area next to the Violet Citadel and using Slow Fall float all the way to the island. Make sure your aim is good!

Kommentar von rzzr

I would recommend doing this grind early on in the expansion when lots of people are doing it so you get back to back mana pools.Later on I suspect it will take much longer as there won't bet he amount of people that want the mount and pet.

Note: Despite id expect increased Mal von Aquaos drop with more players fishing it actually seems like having some ingame lock as intervals between drops were still quite similar no matter of number of fishermen around.

Note2: Entire fishing took me less then a day

Kommentar von nirish

There appears to be a bug: you'll get the message "Your cast didn't land in fishable water" when you try to fish while Levitieren-ing. As a priest, I often levitate while fishing: makes it easier to reach pools, and keeps my clothes dry. But here, I can't fish that way. Turning it off allowed me to fish.

Kommentar von Midders1990

For those wondering, I've roughly narrowed down that the ''sparkly phase'' once Aquaos has been killed, you'll have roughly around 3 minutes with the increased rate of Drowned Mana buff.(##RESPBREAK##)2##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##

Kommentar von Chidsuey

Slow Fall, mount up, arrive at island.

Kommentar von Naelina22

BEWARE: I had 54 Drowned Mana in my bag (after turning in the quest to Conjurer Margoss. I intended to buy the Arcane Lures, but instead, when I clicked on him he kept taking my drowned mana and giving me reputation.

I have no idea why this happened, but after sitting around for a half hour fishing up Drowned Mana to get the lures, it's frustrating to see it all taken away for rep.

Anyone else run into this annoyance?

Kommentar von xiuhayuteotl

Use Cross Realm Assist addon to find a huge group easily for Drowned Mana. You'll be fishing Drowned Mana very fast and max your reputation with Conjurer Margoss easily.

Also if you auto turn in Drowned Mana for reputation when you click on Conjurer Margoss (it happened to me) and don't want this to happen, it's because the Fishing Buddy Addon. Open the addon's options and Unselect Auto turn in for Margoss.

Kommentar von isolde98

I encountered what I thought was a bug: every time I would attempt to turn in Drowned Mana to Conjurer Margoss he would take all my mana for reputation without giving me the chance to buy Arcane Lures.

The bug was actually a setting in the Fishing Buddy addon to automatically turn in Drowned Mana for reputation. In the options for Fishing Buddy I was able to uncheck the box for "Margoss Reputation" and buy my lures without problems.

Kommentar von Spencicle

While I did catch Drowned Mana at skill level 10, it took over 20 casts and 18 out of 20 gave me a message "Your fish got away!" even though I clicked the bobber at the right time.

Kommentar von Takana

Hunters can get there by using an Eagle Feather. In your class hall, grab a feather near the flight master and use the Dalaran portal inside the lodge. You can also do this from any eagle flight path and just use your Dala hearthstone.

Then just jump-glide from the top ledge where the pet trainer is. You can cancel the buff while over the water and safely drop down if you don't wanna keep spinning until you land.

Kommentar von sushibar

For a raid group fishing, does anyone know if non-fishing members will affect the drop rate of the marks? When I created one group, I kept kicking all the hoppers that joined, thinking that they might have a negative impact on the rate, However, that was a bit of a chore, and I'd like to avoid it next time if it makes no difference.

Kommentar von SoCalWoWGal

Note: At the time of posting this comment the Wowhead database had not yet updated the vendor information.

Kommentar von VulcanTourist

Be forewarned: in my experience the game will not allow you to possess more than 100 of these at a time. When you reach that limit of 100, any more you fish up will be dropped with no warning, and they will not be mailed to you as recovered items.

The way this will happen is that the loot window will be empty; if you have autoloot enabled the loot window will disappear insanely fast, much faster than normal. I kept encountering this loss over a period of more than two hours, not realizing at first that it was even happening. When I finally did realize what was occurring, I assumed addons were to blame. They weren't. After returning the game to its out-of-the-box state, I was still constrained to no more than 100 with any more being forfeit. I then began to wonder if the cause was that I had begun fishing in a custom raid group when it first happened? It wasn't. Many others in those raid groups should have noticed. Customer service was typically clueless and most unhelpful.

I was finally left to conclude that, not only does this item have an atypical stacking limit of 100, it also limits players to one stack, no more. That is sufficient to accumulate enough to buy the most expensive thing available with this currency, an underwater mount, but don't expect to be able to sit there by the pond and fish up enough in one unpunctuated stretch to become Best Friend with the vendor and buy everything he offers: the game won't let you.

I fished all the way from fishing level 50 to fishing level 500 in the pond in front of Margoss. During a big chunk of this period I recorded my fishing stats by using the Fishing Buddy addon. In my recorded stats, I caught 1320 fish (902 of which were drowned mana), but during that entire recorded period, my drop rate for the Mal von Aquaos was only 0.2% (I caught only 2 of them).

I managed to catch a ton of Versunkenes Mana by joining various premade groups with keywords like "drowned mana" and "margoss". To do this, I used the Premade Group finder and Cross Realm Assist addons.

It's pretty easy to find a group with 20 people in it, where at least one person always seems to have the next mark to throw in. If you fish that way, you can get your reputation all the way up to Best Friend in a relatively short period of time (a solid day's worth of fishing). The mana buff on the pond is almost non-stop, if you are in a good group!

Kommentar von pat33

BEST ADVICE EVER:DO A PREMADE: Drowned mana farm!

When in 40 man raid you get Mark of Aquaos non stop resulting in endless rain of DROWNED MANA!

Kommentar von yusuf

You can have a MAX of 100 of those!

Once you have 100, you must turn them in to Margoss for reputation or buy something from him before you can loot it again.

He is located on a floating island just north of Dalaran in which is not on the tradiontal map. You can use Goblingleiterbausatz or Emblem von Margoss to reach the island, unless you have flying.

This will take anywhere from 3hours to 12hours+ depending on fishing drop rate of Versunkenes Mana and if you take no breaks.Mal von Aquaos is important as you throw it in and Aquaos der Entfesselte will be summoned. Once he is killed there will be a 2minute buff for the area increasing the fishing drop rate of the Versunkenes Mana about 1-2 per cast at that point. That is why its crucial to find a party and immediately toss in Mal von Aquaos once you have it to gather resources faster.

Kommentar von Mortizzle

Is anyone having an issue where they're fishing and getting 'empty' loots? I can't seem to fish up any more mana (and no,I'm not at 100, I'm at 32)

Kommentar von Grammie

Let me start by saying that two days ago I did not even know this Broken Shore exsisted...I was fishing for Daggermaws in Darkmoon when I noticed all the bobbers and had to look up how to get them...then I had to look up how to get there...so you go to the sewers in new Dalaran and fish the glowing pools for a stone which you use to teleport to Broken Shore...small place - can't really go wrong...stop and do the only quest which simply shows you what the area is about...you fish for drowned mana...my first few casts rewarded the case of worms - crate of cat heads - crate of wooden Pepe...after that I spent the rest of the day going from stranger to pal...I fished only two Mark of Aquaos...the Mark is tossed back into the water which awakens the water guy who fights you til death increasing the amount of fishable mana for two minutes...so today I went at this place head first...someone suggested making a raiding group (which I have never done in my history of playing the game) and I dared to take a chance and do it...WHAT A DIFFERENCE...8 hours was all I needed to go from Pal to Best Friend as well as purchase the items sold by Margoss - one mount - two pets - two toys and the three little items I will never need now...the group was the way to go...I never had less than 5 others in the group at any one time during the 8 hours and when I left there were still a group around the lake...If you are going to do this use the group finder for a raid party...very productive day

Kommentar von Vomitcomet

Here's a Conjurer Margoss rep script you can run in your chat window to see how much rep you have, and how much rep you need to be maxed out.

Kommentar von Xrikzi

If you are having an issue maxing out your Drowned Mana to 100, you probably have some in your bank. You don't have to go back to Dalaran to get it. You can spend stuff that is in your bank now. Just go buy what you want from the vendor! I was stuck at 99 forever. It was very frustrating. Someone kind in my Margoss fishing raid told me this, and I was so grateful! Hope this post keeps someone else from feeling stuck!
